Abstract: To determine thread winding parameters for reducing the rate at which deviations from a cylindrical shape are formed in thread packages being wound, thread packages (30) are successively formed by laying thread (32) upon a driven rotary chuck (14) while pressing a driven rotating contact roller (12) against the package (30) in a manner causing a circumferential force to be transmitted therebetween. Each package (30) is inspected for deviations from a cylindrical shape. The generation of slippage is promoted at an interface between the contact roller (12) and package (30). The amount of promoted slippage is changed between the forming of successive packages (30) to change the rate at which the deformations are formed.

Abstract: The catalytic dehalogenation (or hydrodehalogenation) of halogen-containing compounds of elements of the 4th main group in the presence of hydrogen is made possible by using as catalyst a catalytically active system comprising silicon and at least one transition metal. Such catalytically active systems have a high activity and mechanical stability. For example, the process can be used for the synthesis of compounds or else for decomposing halogen-containing compounds, for example in the context of wastewater or waste gas purification processes. It is also suitable for the dehalogenation (hydrodehalogenation) of halogen-containing silane compounds, for example of silicon tetrachloride or alkyltrichlorosilane compounds. Thus, tetrachlorosilane can be converted into trichlorosilane. The original purity of the silanes used as starting material is maintained in the process. Also described is a finely divided, catalytically active system comprising silicon and at least one transition metal.

Abstract: The pre-polygon scanning path length of a raster output scanning system is reduced by replacing a required cylinder lens, or lenses, with two cylindrical mirrors (30,32). One mirror with a negative, concave surface and a second positive cylindrical mirror. The first mirror (30) directs the light beam to the second mirror (32). The second mirror (32) directs the light onto the facets (18A) of a rotating polygon to form a focused beam in the vertical axis of the polygon. The function of the two cylindrical mirrors (30,32) is to act as a telephoto lens to properly focus the image of the laser at the polygon facet while reducing the total pre-polygon path length.

Abstract: The present invention provides an image pattern identification/recognition method which enables the reduction of the work load of the user required in the case of incorrect character recognition, as well as facilitating the addition of a new recognition pattern in the dictionary so that the pattern can be identified and added thereafter. A binary image pattern which has been entered is compared to each of the binary mask patterns prepared in advance for each of the recognition categories so as to identify/recognize the binary pattern and to determine the recognition category to which the binary pattern belongs. The binary image pattern is identified as belonging to the first recognition category if the black portions of the binary image pattern are contained in the black portions of the binary mask pattern of the first recognition category and if the black portions of the binary image pattern are contained only in the double black portions between the binary mask pattern of the first recognition category and that of the second recognition category.

Abstract: A disk-like recording medium is rotatably accommodated in a case 1 configured by opposing an upper half 2 to a lower half 3. A lower head insert hole is formed so as to extend from an approximately center of an edge surface of an inserting direction to the drive apparatus to a direction contrary to the inserting direction. An upper accommodating portion 21 having a swelling shape is formed on an upper surface of the upper half 2 and an approximately direct upper portion of the lower head insert hole. Thus, an edge surface opening which contacts the lower head insert hole is formed on an edge surface of the case on a side of the inserting direction to the drive apparatus. Normally, the edge surface opening is closed by a short side portion 42 of a shutter 4 and the lower head insert hole is closed by a long side portion 41 of the shutter 4. When the disk cartridge is inserted in the drive apparatus, the shutter 4 slides in a direction perpendicular to the inserting direction to open the edge surface opening and the lower head insert hole. In this situation, an upper head on the drive apparatus side is inserted in the upper head accommodating portion 21 in an approximately horizontal direction. A lower head on the drive apparatus side is inserted from a lower side in the lower head insert hole. That is, the disk cartridge is loaded in the drive apparatus in a horizontal state.

Abstract: The outline of an embroidery region is determined and then a center line of the embroidery region is determined. Starting from one point on the center line, a search is made for end points and branch points on the center line. At branch points, bisectors for spaces between branches are generated to divide the embroidery region into plural closures. Near the end point, the orientation of the embroidery lines is determined to be perpendicular to the center line. Near the branch point, the orientation of the embroidery lines is determined to be parallel to a line connecting the intersection points of the bisectors and the outline. Embroidery data are obtained by a fill operation, and the orientations of the respective embroidery lines are set to interpolate the above-mentioned two orientations. The needle points are determined on the outline. Near the branches, the needle points are determined on a closer side on the outline or said bisector.
